vice we feel. and this is true-of all
our shops. that We are promoting the
best interests of the city of Norwaik.
The city is growing“ It is to the in-
terest of everyone to keep it. growing
but if we chase shoppers away. if we
make people feel that they cannot
shop with some degree of leisure I
am fearful our growth will be ham-
pered. .
“I would like to offer a. suggestio
to the Connecticut company. At the
present time at‘ least four trolley lines
do their switching in Wall street. And
this causes tie-ups continually around
the Boston Store corner. Now why
cannot the cars coming down Mill
Hill keep going and make the switch
at the Green opposite the Methodist
church? And. the cars coming from
Stamford could run on to the top of
Mill Hill and switch at the Green.
"I feel sure that this would clear
away much 'of the trsaic blocks
around the Boston Store. would keep
through trsflic moving it would
then allow shoppers a in re reasona-
ble time to attend to their business.
"No merchant wants tovdiavs a car.
stand outside his store bait a.day. so
you see we’lteliavo .in regulation but
we believe that the city'governmsnt
should giro this matter careful atten-
tion and work . out a. pian,with the
help of the police 10 that Norwalk

F. H. Moorehouse of as Wall street
said he. was satianed with the 20 min-
ute parking law. ' ‘ i
"For my business that is enough
time. Of course I can understand
why other merchants require longer
time. but focus. people know what‘
they want and the question is merely
time for us to gather together the
list of groceries required. \Ve havo
occasions of course when a. person has
shopped some other place before
coming into our store and that per-
son~has hadxto take his car some dis-
tance away and we have been com-l
polled to carry a big order of gro-’
cerles a couple of blocks.
“What I am opposed to is the lack
of regulation against those persons
who have offices in ‘these buildings
coming here and leaving their cars]
in front of my door for hours.
“There is a. car out there now. It
has stood there for two hours and a
half. It belongs to some one who has
an office upstairs. Now that is not
fair to me or to those'who want to
stop into my store for ten or 15
minutes to give an order. That's the
only kick I have. and so long as I am
satisfied with the 20 minute parking
law. I feel that. the police should an-
force the law. at least in front of my
place of business."
At Olsen's shoe store in Wall street.
it was said that 20 minutes was no
where near a practical time for a
person to get shoes properly fitted.
The whole trouble as voiced by the
merchants seemed to be that there
was a. lack of proper parking space.
and the hope is that the city govern-
ment will be able to find some plot of
ground near “'3“ street where automo-
billsts can park their cars and go
about the city at leisure.
In South Norwalk. along “'ashing-
ton street. North Main and South
Main streets. the parking situation is
as bad as around Main and Wall
streets. Norwalk. '
Some of the South Nora-all: mer-
chants declared. however. that Nor-
walk is handling the matter a. little
different. that instead of lining in-
nocent offenders the court is letting
them off with a warning. It is'known
that South Norwalk merchants have
lost hundreds of dollars through can-
cellation of orders by shoppers who
have been tagged and fined and that
shoppers from Norwaik. Rowayton
and nearby towns have declared they
will not take a chance of being tagged
and lined in South Norwalk but in-
tend hereafter to spend their money
in Stamford and other towns.
J. Stewart Gillespie of Rowayton. is
one and William Krusch of Main
street. Norwalk. is another. The list
is a long one though all the names
of those who are keeping away are
not known. There have been instances
where men have ordered a large
amount of goods in I. store and in the
midst of their shopping have been told
to move their cars or be tagged. Many
or these men angered have said:
"Never mind that order. I‘ll get my‘
things where I won't have to worry
about being dragged into court." ‘
.. The situation in South Norwalk m
tilked about freely by Charla EC
Hoyt. treasurer of the South Norwallt
Trust Company. James 3min“!
Joseph Davis, Albert D. ldo u. ‘an '
others. A plan will be offered by theao‘
men to relieve‘ the traffic Jam and at
the same time to relieve the nervous
tension of shoppers. - ~

For Robin Hood was the first man
of all todiscover America... What he
realised was that. sciqewhere on this
planet. there must be a place for the
man without a chance in life. Born.
no one knows when or how. the. fact
about him was that he was outside the
feudal system of his day.
“here his spirit wandered. as in
New England. was as yet no consti-
tuted authority. No sheriff writ there
ran. Never at any time was there
such honor among thieves. They
took. as every colonlst takes. what was
not their own. They parked i sir
steeds under elm‘s that others. includ-
ing God. had planted.
But there were no anarchists. What
they set up as the standard. was not
confusion. but a new order. based in
the main upon kindlier sanctions than
the old and administered with a sym-
pathy toward the oppressed. hitherto
unknown.
About Robin Hood. as about Abra-
ham .Liacoln. there was a wise evolu_
atlon of men. Robin never pretended
that Little John and Friar Tuck and
“’ili Scarlet and George Green were
his equals in ability or the equals of
one another. “(hat he did say was
that each man’s ability should be
used for all it_waa worth. Nor did
he think that there could ever be the
same status for women and man. What
he insisted upon there was that all
men should respect all women. He
was thus the pioneer both of private
enterprise and of chivalry.

Protests are to be made by the
Rowayon Civic Association. on two
matters which are felt to be of vital
importance to the commuters of that
section of the city. the first on the dis-
continuance of the early morning dis-
tribution of mail, and the second for
the non-stopping at Rowayton. of the
5510 ”p. m. train from New York city.
‘The postal matter was discussed at
length and it was voted to send a
protest to that Postmaster General on
the‘ matter. Patrnastee‘ Harvey
Ackert «continued the use a. in.
mail. because the appropriation for
the carrying of mails had been cut
down. The protest is that some other
distribution should be omitted rather
than this. as commutors depend on
this to receive their mail before they
go to the city.
“A protest is to be made to the Pub-
lic Utilities Commisslou asking that
the 5:10 train from ‘New Icrk city be
made to stop at Rowayton. as there
are twenLv or more commutora who
have to get off at Dorian and take a
